The wind at my window

Is rattling the glass

I'll fill it again as your memory rolls past

Every heartache's a storm that keep blowin' through

I'll be under the weather

'Til I'm over you

(Chorus)

'Cause Bourbon and branch water's a fool's poor excuse

It won't heal my heartache

And it won't cure the blues

It's only postponing the cold-hearted truth

Forever is over between me and you

Well, out here in West Texas

There ain't much to do

It's only the whiskey and me without you

Now if I had a prayer I know what I'd say

I'd beg God to send you Back here someday

(Repeat chorus)

As you fade in the distance, I finally see

Forever is over between you and me
